Can you clarify “gunbuster”?

Also, can any business print out a copy of a 30.06 or 30.07 and post it in their window in the proper formatting, or does it have to come from the state?

I’d rather ask stupid questions now than look like a fool later on. Thanks for your responses and patience.

1. Gunbuster sign: Does not meet the requirements of 30.06 or 30.07 and has no effect on Texas LTC/CHL holders. However, you should expect to be asked to leave or cover if you are carrying openly.

2. Texas law does not require that signs come from a certain source. A business owner can make their own or have them made as long as the sign meets the criteria of Texas Penal Code 30.06 (c) (3) (B) and 30.07 (c) (3) (B). http://www.statutes.legis.state.tx.us/D ... /PE.30.htm

For example, an 8.5 x 11 inch piece of paper cannot be "notice" as required by TPC 30.06/30.07 as the lettering cannot be "at least one inch in height." Again, if you go past a non-compliant 30.07 type sign, you should expect to be asked to cover or leave.

Their is no officially sourced sign. As long as it meets the State's criteria it is considered legal.

Fantastic thank you. I believe that’s it for my questions for now, or at least the ones I know to ask.

Thus, the business owner satisfies a broad range of customers.

It's the same as business owners who post No Mexicans signs. The signs are not enforceable but it appeases the KKKrowd. Nobody should boycott. The business owners are just appealing to a broad range of customers.

You WILL have other questions. Stick around and read, ask, & answer. They are all learning experiences.

I have no doubt I’ll have more questions. Like what I tell the soldiers I train, “you don’t have any questions now because you don’t know what to ask”. The questions will come, thank you all for taking the time to answer them.

I used to tell the young airmen that worked for me, "There's no such thing as a dumb question."

Unfortunately, some of them took that as a challenge.
